Baldur's Gate 3

Larian showing how to make a great game.

lost 360+ hours of saves, wich even if the game is good leaves the worst aftertaste possible and ruins the whole experience

Pay no attention to the number of review stars given this game by various people--because none of them--including my own--are valid. This game is so deep into Early Access that it's simply impossible to rate it or review it. Even when the game is finally released (no ship date exists), the EA version selling now only includes Chapter 1--with 80%-90% of the full game remaining under wraps and hidden until the full game ships! *So at best you get a buggy Chapter 1, and nothing else. However, if you buy the EA version now, then when the full game ships you will likely get it a week or two earlier than the general public, and you have already paid for the full game, so no other charges will be forthcoming. As well, you will be able to provide Larian with feedback as the game continues under the EA, if you like doing that sort of thing. *I do think that buying the EA of BG3 is infinitely preferable to paying full pop in a pre-order --which I don't advise anyone to do with any game (unless you get a nice fat discount as an incentive, and you trust the developer, that is!) *My opinion based on what I have seen so far: BG3 has a very good chance of not only becoming the Game of the Year (when it is released, either very late this year or early in 2022), but very possibly the Game of the Decade. But it certainly is not either of those today, nor can such be determined until the full game is released. But what I have seen so far is only 10%-20% of the game--Chapter 1--and Chapter 1 has a lot of debugging and polishing ahead of it yet! *It is simply impossible, imo, to offer a review on BG3 since the full game is many months from release.

More than just a guided scenario, you can make your choice in the first act I have tried. I have played it 2 times: one time to be in the good side and the second time in coop for the dark side. Every side was funny to play. The interaction with the environment, the ambiance and the acting in the cinematic make it no comparable to divinity 2 and is much better. Yes, it doesn't seems to continue the scenario of Baldur's gate 2 but it's not a problem to be in the same universe with similarities. We have fun with the gameplay and choice so it the things to remember.
